A neighbor dispute in Ohio has taken a political turn, according to a police report cited by the Daily Mail. Jerry, a 70 year old Greenville man, was given a misdemeanor littering citation after he was reportedly caught relieving himself on a neighbor’s lawn around 3:15 a.m. on a Sunday.
The neighbor, Matthew, reportedly spotted Jerry on his property and approached him. Jerry allegedly left, but Matthew contacted police, as Complex reported.
When officers responded, Jerry initially denied the claim, according to the report. He then reportedly admitted he had done it multiple times before. The report says he told police he did it because the residents are Democrats who support Joe Biden and he is a Trump supporter. The responding officer wrote that this led him to believe the incident was politically motivated.
Matthew told reporters he had found mess on his lawn for years and believed Jerry was behind it. He also said he sometimes found crumpled restaurant napkins left behind, which he took as a sign someone had been there.
Jerry was cited for a misdemeanor, and nothing in the reports indicated he had commented publicly on the citation. We will update this story if more details come out.
